TOKYO | Baird Taproom (Takadanobaba) is one of several bars that Baird have across Japan. Their third in Tokyo when it opened, the Takadanobaba taproom is a contemporary take on a traditional Japanese kominka (old style house). Worn, dark wood and hand-fashioned furniture, warm lighting, a low roof and wooden floors all combine to create the desired effect. There’s also a spacious patio if you’re after more of an outdoor feel.
There’s 20 taps behind the bar, including a hand pump. You’ll find Baird’s entire core range, along with seasonal and location specific brews. The Suruga Bay is an 8.5% ABV Imperial IPA that tastes fantastic. The Red Rose, a 6.0% ABV Amber Ale, is also well worth trying.
If you’re hungry or just looking for a snack, the food offering at Baird is very decent. Think sashimi, karaage, curry rice, and Osaka-style kushiage – skewered, bread crumbed, deep fried meat and seasonal vegetable bites.
